Feminist Policy Collective 

The India Gender Report – the first of its kind – is conceived and envisaged in the context of the many gendered rights that are enshrined in the Constitution of India. The endeavour is to examine myriad essential aspects of the gendered economic, extra-economic and non-economic status perceived from the prism of transformative feminist finance in order to demystify the enabler and simultaneously the de-enabler role of the Macro-Patriarchal State. Each of the 26 chapters, which interlink academics, analysis, advocacy and action, indicate four universal processes across all sectors and sub-sectors: the reinforcement of gender de-equalisation; the intensification of patriarchal rigidities; the deepening of economic and extra-economic divides; the increased exclusion of vulnerable and marginalised groups.

New Systematic Review Report: "Transforming Gender Norms, Roles and Power Dynamics for Better Health"

Dear colleagues,

The MEASURE Evaluation Project and the Health Policy Project, together with the Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI) and the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW), are pleased to share a recently published systematic review entitled “Transforming Gender Norms, Roles and Power Dynamics for Better Health”.  Click here to read the full report: http://www.healthpolicyproject.com/pubs/381_GPMIndiaSummaryReport.pdf.

With funding from the Asia Bureau at USAID, the authors undertook a systematic review of the impact of gender-integrated programs on health outcomes. The report presents comprehensive and up-to-date evidence showing how gender-integrated programming influences health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries: in particular, reproductive, maternal, neonatal, child, and adolescent health; HIV prevention and the AIDS response; gender-based violence; tuberculosis; and universal health coverage. The findings are primarily intended to inform the work of government officials, donors, nongovernmental organizations, and other key stakeholders involved in health programming in India, as well as other low- and middle-income countries around the world.

The review found gender-aware programs generally improved health status, health behaviors, and health knowledge. Transformative programs typically went further, shaping gender-equitable attitudes, increasing the frequency of joint decision making by men and women, and increasing women’s self-confidence and self-efficacy. Notably, only 45% of evaluations of gender-aware programs reported achieving gender-related outcomes and just two (of 146) evaluations examined the added value of gender integration to achievement of health outcomes

 Please take a look!
